Fingers Crossed 2023 "Brain Teaser" Red, California
$249.99Fingers Crossed 2023 "Brain Teaser" Red, California
Rare new release from cult winery Fingers Crossed.
99 Points Jeb Dunnuck: "A Southern Rhône-like blend of 33.6% Grenache, 30.8% Syrah, 17.5% Petite Sirah, 15.4% Graciano, and the rest Mourvèdre, the Fingers Crosssed 2023 Red Wine Brain Teaser was fermented with 23% whole clusters and is aging in 38% new French oak. Vivid ruby/purple in color, it offers a beautiful mix of red and black berries, peppery spice, sappy spring flowers, and rosemary. Medium to full-bodied, it’s impeccably balanced, with ultra-fine tannins and a seamless, textured mouthfeel. As is typical for this estate, the wine emphasizes finesse and elegance as much as richness and power. Don’t miss it."
"The son of Manfred Krankl at Sine Qua Non, Nicolas, along with his wife Julia, created Faethm (Now Called Fingers Crossed) in 2017, and their first release, which immediately sold out, went live in 2019. I can’t recall a new estate that has impressed me as much right out of the gate and these 2017 and 2018s are truly brilliant wines.” - Jeb Dunnuck
